Lemon Cookies at Cermak Fresh Market

There is something about cookies. I do not know anyone who does not like one kind or another. With so many cookies on the store shelves, it can be hard to choose which one to pick up and try. This is especially true when it comes to gluten free cookies. Some have an odd taste or a gritty texture which can lead one to think there are not any good gluten free cookies on the market.

The truth is there are good gluten free cookies in the world. One of my favorites is the Lemon Sugar Cookies made by Schroeter’s Gluten Free Bakeshop. They are really good. Made with just the right amount of lemon, I could not even tell these cookies were gluten free when I ate them. What makes them even better is they are made in Milwaukee. The travel to the store is very short which leads me to believe they are quite fresh when I buy them. I have found these lemon cookies at both Cermak Fresh Market and Outpost Natural Foods.

Puffins Cereal at Outpost Natural Foods

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. So try Barbara’s Puffins Multigrain Cereal. These tasty squares are great for breakfast but can be eaten as a snack. I bought the cereal at Outpost Natural Foods but I have also found it at Whole Foods.

Who We Are

My mother and I, (Lady G and Kate) do not lead gluten free lives. Neither one of us has a gluten intolerance, but we come across more and more people who do. Our interest in finding gluten free options began when my brother started dating a woman who does have a gluten intolerance. We sought out to find different stores and restaurants in Milwaukee that offered items my brother’s girlfriend could eat. As we did this, we found ourselves frequently recommending our findings to other people. We did this so often, we decided to create a blog letting everyone know how they can live gluten free in Milwaukee.

A Note to Our Readers

As writers of this blog, our goal is to feature as many product options as possible to those who are gluten-free. While we are always excited to let our readers know about a newly discovered product, we do not verify whether or not it is certified gluten-free. We operate with the information we know at the time and take the word of the manufacturer or restaurant that has the product. We ask that you always ask questions, especially those with an extreme sensitivity to gluten, in order to make a decision as to whether or not the product is right for you.
